Anybody seen him punt before? I seem to recall he and Lightbourne being real close in fall camp. I think maybe he should get a shot.
 
Yep! I believe the coaches see him punt every day.

Cut the kid some slack. It's his second game and he's been thrown into a tough situation.

His punts looked good during pregame. I say give him a shot.

Lightbourn has a ways to go. Kicking the ball a net of 24 yards is not good.

Yes, I understand. But it may be best for him to watch a few more punts from the sidelines.
 
Lightbourne won the job based on his speed and elusiveness in the run game. He is averaging 4 yards per carry in limited attempts thus far. That's pretty darn good. I bet Newby doesn't have those yards per carry if he lines up 12 yards deep in the I formation
